What can the children do with the picture except for colouring ? How about COLLAGE and LACING ? They are FUN to do. What we need is a simple big picture print and you can find all simple big pictures from COLORING SIMPLE SHAPES. I would suggest that you print using a thick paper, MANILA PAPER. Once you have the big picture print, your child can do COLLAGE or LACING.
COLLAGE. You can use fabric of old clothes or towel, colour paper or just simply old magazines and cut them into small pieces. Encourage your child to do the cutting by himself to train his motor skill. Cutting the pieces into pattern shapes such as triangle, square, circle looks even better. Then all small pieces are sticked within the picture.
Below is the picture of collage using magazine paper.

LACING. Your child may want to colour the picture before you punch the holes around it. Then, he can start lacing with one or more colour strings.

This is fun activities for kids. While it helps develop their motor skills it will also broaden their creative world. You can also try to use photos for collage and paste all the pictures in the family.
This is educational activity. What’s good about it is you can recycle magazines or used laces. Surely my kids will love this activity and we can post it in their room.
I teach a K1 class at a private school 3 days a week that I think this activity will be great for. I will give it a go in the classroom and let you know how it goes over with the kids.
I agree that this is educational and fun work for kids. We can also use candy wrappers or colored foils for the collage. I also like the idea of using lace or yarn. The material is so cheap.
